While it's true that
RE/MAX is the home of top producing agents, and that RE/MAX
has a higher percentage of agents earning in the top 5% nationally
than any other company, it would be inaccurate to
say that RE/MAX is only for top producers. In fact, because
of our low fees and high commission philosophy, RE/MAX is the
perfect fit for the rising star, or agents that wish to
operate at levels that fit their business goals and personal
livestyles.
What we are looking
for are professional people with a business and or sales
background and an entrepreneurial spirit, that
know and understand what it takes to succeed in business today.
RE/MAX is not for the hobbyist, part timers or people not
serious about their business. Success is contagious and we want
agents inspiring others and being inspired by others. Whether
you are newer to the business, or a seasoned veteran, if you
have the commitment, dedication and passion to succeed and get
the most from your business, this is where you belong.
The company that
has the most offices and the most agents will always be the
company with the largest market share. It's simple mathematics. But
don't be fooled or mis-lead by this. What is a more telling
statistic is which agents or which companies are doing
the most business. RE/MAX offices and agents on average
sell more homes than any other company.

Actually, just the
opposite will be the case. When agents join RE/MAX
they will see their business increase. There are many
reasons for this is, (Go to Why Agents Change and click on Agent
Production) one of which is that agents have more money to
spend on their own self-promotion when they don't have to pay
high broker fees. Top agents know that real success comes
from investing in their own business, not their broker's business.
That's what our competition
would like you to believe, but the simple truth is just the
opposite. RE/MAX's core philosophy and where our very name comes
from, 'Real Estate Maximums', allows agents to retain
the maximum commission possible while having the lowest fees
available for a name brand company. In keeping with this philosophy,
RE/MAX Realty Professionals's fees are among the lowest
on the entire eastside. Our fees will run in some cases half
of what agents pay to be associated with some other name
brands. (Go to Fees & Benefits on this website and
compare our rates to what you are paying.)
Other companies try
to convince agents there are hidden fees at RE/MAX because they
can't compete with the significant savings agents enjoy when
affiliated with RE/MAX. How can RE/MAX be so much less than
other companies? Simply put, it's 'Broker-centric' versus
'Agent-centric' philosophy. At RE/MAX we believe the agents
should keep more of what they earn. We believe when agents affiliate
themselves with "Agent-centric" companies, like RE/MAX
... Everybody Wins.
RE/MAX has always
been a fee office concept. That is the basis on how the company
was founded. And it will maintain the fee concept and encourage
its agents to structure their business that way, because it
is the most cost effective for the agents. Maximizing your profits
is what RE/MAX is all about. However, for those converting
from another company in which they were on a funded program,
and are not yet comfortable with the desk fee structure RE/MAX
Realty Professionals does offer a split commission or funded
office program.
Probably one of the
biggest myths of all. The fact is RE/MAX is the
leader in agent training. Providing 20 hours of advanced and
comprehensive training every week, right in our own office, on
the RE/MAX Satellite Network. Also available on RSN is
our Hall of Fame Coaching which airs on the second Tuesday
of every month. The coaches that can be seen on RSN are;
Howard Brinton, Brian Buffini, Dave Liniger, Connie Podesta and
Richard Robbins. In addition to RSN training classes, courses
are offered throughout the year both by the RE/MAX Pacific Northwest
Region and through our own office at RE/MAX Realty Professionals.
Once again the myth
doesn't hold up to scrutiny. RE/MAX is the largest real
estate company in the world. Common sense alone would tell you
there is no tool or program we don't have or can't get. The
fact of the matter is RE/MAX has significantly more tools and
programs available to agents than any other real estate company
period. Check out the Agent Tools on this website for just
a few examples.
